10 Best S'mores-Inspired Treats from Trader Joe's, Aldi and Costco
Gather 'round the fire. Nothing screams summer like a marshmallow and chocolate bar sandwiched between two halves of a graham cracker. We can't have enough of the delectable treat, better known as a s'more, during fire pit season.
But there's not time or space in every day for a fire pit — your on-the-go itinerary may see you heading out to work or sitting in beach traffic. Campfires are not recommended for these moments. S'mores still are.

In May, Trader Joe's had a big hit with their limited-edition S'Mores Clusters. The totable, melt-in-your-mouth snack included mini marshmallows, milk chocolate and crispy graham crackers. It obviously flew off the shelves.
But other s'mores-inspired groceries have entered, returned to or stayed on the market this summer. From baked goods to the sweetest ice cream, you'll want more and more of these s'mores-inspired groceries. In the mood for the real deal? Leave it to Target to come in clutch with the easiest way to snag this campfire staple.

Leave it to Trader Joe's to combine two quintessential summer treats — ice cream and s'mores — into one pint of frozen gooey goodness. The new ice cream flavor dropped to much fanfare in June. The sweet treat has a graham cracker base and chocolatey swirls and begs to be opened before you stick your key in the ignition and drive home. Though not inherently made for on-the-go snacking, you can ask your checkout person for frozen water bottles or stick the ice cream in your Trader Joe's insulated bag and take it to a soiree or beach day.

Is Costco just s'more-ifying everything these days or what? The Delici Chocolate Smores Soufflé isn't new for 2023, but Redditors are buzzing it may be on its way out — so now is the time to give it a shot and start clamoring that Costco keeps it around. The six-pack dessert combines real graham cracker cookie crumbs with marshmallow creme for a slightly elevated version of the campfire treat. BJ's also stocks it.
5. Kirkland Signature S'more Caramel Cluster
These recently-unveiled snack clusters get an extra dose of sweetness courtesy of caramel. Pro tip from the geniuses on Reddit: "I gently smash these up and sprinkle them on my ice cream. It’s great! I’m going to try using this in a milkshake next."
6. Whole Foods Market S'mores Granola
Not new but trending for summer, Whole Foods Market S'mores Granola is the perfect addition to yogurt parfaits for breakfast and ice creams for dessert (or ice cream for breakfast because it's summer). Snag it on Amazon.
7. S’moreo Sandwich Cookies
Back for the first time since 2021, these limited-edition Oreo cookies got a punny rebrand for 2023. Instead of S'mores Oreos, the cookie brand is calling them S'moreos. See what they did there? The graham-crackered flavored sandwiches with layers of chocolate and marshmallow are the same — and we're not complaining. They're available nationwide in grocery stores, but you can also order them on Amazon.
8. Chocolate Brownie S'mores
Aldi unveiled an easy-to-prep Chocolate Brownie S'mores product in the UK for summer. It has a milk chocolate brownie, chocolate sauce, marshmallows and biscuits and comes with foil that you can throw on the grill. Unfortunately, it appears to only be in UK Aldi's. But since summer travel is heating up: If you're headed on a UK excursion, put a stop at Aldi on your itinerary right up there with Big Ben where it belongs. If not, baking this Aldi recipe for S'more Brownie Sandwich Bars isn't exactly settling.
9. Favorite Day Peanut Butter S'mores Trail Mix
This Target-brand trail mix reinvents the wheel in the best way possible, adding peanut butter to the mix for what one fan calls the "perfect combo of crunchy, sweet and salty."
10. Favorite Day S'mores Snack Mix
Not into peanut butter with your s'mores? Fair enough. Favorite Day also stocks a classic riff on the quintessential summer treat at Target.
The S'mores Line at Target
